Luigi Mangione and Diddy set to share the same judge

After his right to an extradition hearing was waived, Mangione was flown from Pennsylvania to New York, where he now faces federal charges. Earlier this week, it was reported that the accused spent his first night in the same NYC federal prison as disgraced rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs. He will soon end UP celebrating his first Christmas at the same establishment. Both inmates’ high-profile federal cases share more unlikely connections than expected. Simultaneously locked away at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn, Mangione previously retained his highly influential defence lawyer, Karen Friedman-Agnifilo.

She is married to Marc Agnifilo, who has been backing Diddy to battle the sex trafficking charges against him. As per the latest development in his case, the Diddy attorney will also take on Mangione’s case and juggle Combs’ scandal. Contrary to the 26-year-old suspected CEO shooter’s former lifestyle as a member of a prominent Baltimore family, experts believe that it will be especially difficult for him to adjust to the notorious federal lockup’s (previously housed Ghislaine Maxwell and rappers such as R Kelly and 6ix9ine) conditions, prison expert Larry Levine, who’s also the founder of Wall Street Prison Consultants, told the US Sun.

“He’s acclimating himself to his new surroundings. His lawyers are thanking God he’s in New York, and they don’t have to travel to Pennsylvania to visit him. So, he’s just adjusting to where he’s at.”

Speaking of how Diddy can bear the conditions of the lockup thrown in his face, Levine portrayed a different picture. “But [Diddy] can handle his s**t. I just know [Mangione] is f**king scared, and now they’re probably trying to force-feed him,’ they added. “They’re gonna offer him psych meds. He’s gonna be like a f**king zombie. That’s a given.”

On top of addressing the top-notch age and circumstantial gaps between Magione and many others. The Metropolitan Detention Centre, currently holding both Luigi and Diddy behind bars, is reportedly scarred with “ inmate death and violence, rodents, raw sewage, understaffing, and a deteriorating infrastructure.” The expert took a step further in comparing the alleged CEO killer’s living conditions in the infamous prison to “living in your bathroom.” It’s speculated that Luigi will especially feel the exacerbated impacts of being there, which is likened to “living in your bathroom.”

Levin added, “You know, if he’s living in a cell like Diddy was for a while, you know how big those cells are? Picture living in your bathroom with no TV, no computer as well.

The expert weighed in on how Mangion has nothing to do with his life, Highlighting how Luigi comes from a prominent family that comes from old money.

“You’re talking old, old million, old money,” said Levine. However, his fate has entirely flipped over: “Now he can have cheese crackers and maybe a bottle of a plastic bottle of soda.” The prison expert continued, “He’ll buy a honey bun. It’s like all knock-offs, too. They don’t sell the real s**t in the feds. “What is it called, Mrs. Freshly – I never heard of it until I went in. I saw it once at a $.99 store.”
